Clive Barker's "Salome" and "The Forbidden": Two Short Films (1973)
It is hard to reconcile the young, chipper, handsome Clive Barker, the horror author and film fantasist of an undeniably boyish countenance, who held the sway of even the venerable Stephen King (who declared him the "future of horror" in the late 1980s) with the ravaged, haggard figure we see in contemporary photographs. Barker, despite whatever health problems and personal demons he has wrestled with over the decades, has maintained an output often bordering on brilliance; a steady, if underappreciated oeuvre of chilling depictions of man's possession by infernal forces, his exploration, and capitulation to these dark shades of desire and pain; his seeking out of doorways into Hell, pathways into darkness parallel to our own.

Many claimed to have heard chilling screams carried on the wind and seen ghostly figures peering out from the shattered windows in the dead of night. It was a place avoided by all, except for the most daring and foolhardy souls.

Phantasm
"You play a good game, Boy! But the game is finished! Now you die!"--The Tall Man The cadaverous visage of the late actor Angus Scrimm, a man whose very name is as perfect for a supernatural horror villain as any I could conceive, holds forth as the menacing, extraterrestrial cum supernatural dream demon the "Tall Man, " in the original Phantasm, a film so perfectly perfect that it is hard to determine if the director was blessed by the Fates or simply made a pact with the Devil to turn out a picture I have seen repeatedly, and never failed to delight at.
